Six scrapbooks of newspaper clippings from the Honolulu Star-Bulletin and Honolulu Advertiser compiled during the war by Clorinda Lucas, director of the Division of Pupil Guidance of the Department of Public Instruction. Four of the scrapbooks are compilations of popular columns from the war years, including Jared G. Smith’s Advertiser column (from 1942 January 7 to 1945 September 16), Raymond Clapper’s United Press “Clapper’s Comment” columns (from 1941 January 6 to 1944 February 4), Ernie Pyle’s syndicated Scripps-Howard column (from 1943 April 19 to 1945 May), and Laselle Gilman’s Advertiser column “Honolulu War Diary” (from 1941 December 23 to 1944 November 11). The two additional scrapbooks are subject based. One, titled World War II Hawaii, spans 1941 December 9 to 1943 June 2. The final scrapbook, titled Day Care, covers 1942 February 2 to 1943 August 5.
